Fabio Borini looks set to remain a Liverpool player - certainly for the time being - as talks with Lazio appear to have broken down over the players personal terms.

A fee had been agreed by the two clubs but Italian newspaper Il Messaggero report that a disagreement between the owners of Lazio and the players representatives means that the proposed move has been shelved. Borini of course has previous having rejected not one but two moves last summer for having "wildly unrealistic expectations" with his salary rumoured to be in excess of £140k per week. With two years still to run on his current contract Borini seems quite happy to sit back despite the arrival of Danny Ings and a proposed move for Christian Benteke pushing the Italian even further down the pecking order.

In a not-so-common occurrence for Liverpool, goals were found from the striker position as starter Fabio Borini and substitute Ricky Lambert provided the scoring in the Reds 0-2 win over Aston Villa.

Today's result should confirm beyond a shadow of a doubt that the purchase of Mario Balotelli was a gigantic and expensive mistake. Even without Steven Gerrard, Liverpool were able to display a competent attacking form against a Villa side who can shut you down on their day. Borini opened the scoring when he volleyed home a nifty Jordan Henderson cross as the latter scooped the ball over the Villa defense and Borini was able to stay onside. Brendan Rodgers then made a like-for-like substitution and flipped Borini for Lambert. The veteran received a Raheem Sterling pass out right on a counter-attack and slotted it into the far corner of net to seal the points in the 79th minute. With Daniel Sturridge due back in the near future and Pool showing better defending in the past couple months, fantasy investment across the squad is trending upward. Jan 17 - 12:22 PM

Fabio Borini may have played his final game in a Liverpool shirt after the Italian striker was sent-off for two bookable offences following his introduction during Sundays’ last gasp draw with Arsenal at Anfield.

A frustrated Borini cut a forlorn figure as he trudged off after a high challenge on Santi Cazorla left referee Michael Oliver with no option after he had been booked moments earlier for dissent. Borini rejected summer moves to both Sunderland and Queens Park Rangers to "fight for his place" but it is evident that the player does not feature in Brendan Rodgers’ long-term plans having only started one league game this season. Despite the stuttering and out-of-form Mario Balotelli and the disappointing Lazar Markovic Borini has been continuously overlooked and with Raheem Sterling also staking a claim for a place up front the forward may look elsewhere during the January transfer window.

Sunderland boss Gus Poyet has indicated that a move for Liverpool striker Fabio Borini could still be on after confirming talks between the two clubs.

Sunderland agreed a fee with Liverpool two weeks ago and the club were keen to sell, but Borini himself decided he wanted to stay at Anfield, much to Poyet's frustration. It now appears negotiations are back on, and if Brendan Rodgers were to make it clear to Borini that he doesn't feature in his plans for the season ahead, then the 23-year-old striker may feel he has no option but to take the deal on offer at the Stadium of Light.
